Note: This module must be “Included in the
Network” only where it will be permanently
installed. The proper operation of this node in the
mesh network is dependent on it knowing its
location with respect to other nodes. You cannot
“test bench” configure this module.

ZRW153 WALL MOUNTED SWITCH

Radio Frequency Controlled, 120 VAC,

Wall Mounted 3-Way Switch, Release1.1

The ZRW153 Wall Mounted 3-Way Switch is a component of the HomePro lighting control system. Wire the Wall
Mounted Switch in place of the standard wall switch according to the diagram above and program from the Wireless
Controller to operate loads. Inclusion of this Switch on the ZTH100 Wireless Controller menu allows remote ON/OFF
control of lamps connected.

This Wall Mounted Switch is designed to work with other Z-Wave enabled devices. Z-Wave nodes of other types can
be added to the system and will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signal received to
other modules in the system.

As part of a Z-Wave network, the ZRW153 will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for
another device in the network are received. This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio range
of the wireless controller.

There are no field repairable assemblies on this unit.. If service is needed, the unit must be returned where purchased.
DANGER! SHOCK HAZARD. Read and understand these instructions before installing. This device is intended for

installation in accordance with the National Electric code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian
Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform this installation.

Make sure the load controlled the switch does not exceed 1800 watts. For indoor use only. Retain instructions for
future use.

INSTALLATION

With power off, wire this switch in place of a current wall switch according to the diagram above.

AS101’s are required to be wired to the same line (or neutral) which is also wired to the master unit as well as the
load being controlled, and not wired to any other neutral. If multiple neutrals are tied together in one box, separate
the neutrals to preserve the integrity of the ZRW153 circuit. Caution! Do not wire unit “live” (with power on the circuit)
and do not allow the yellow wire to contact line voltage, neutral or ground or you will damage the device.

See the ZTH100 Wireless Controller operating instructions to add this module under the command of the Wireless
Controller.

ZRW153 Instructions, Release 1.1

P/D 103106

BASIC OPERATION

(Local Control)

The switch paddle on the ZRW153 allows the user to:

• Turn on or off the attached load .

• Include or exclude the module from the Z-Wave system

• Control other Z-Wave enabled devices.

Also, when a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button on Unit”, quickly tap the switch on or
off once to satisfy those instructions. Also, quickly tapping on or off 4 times will give you the same result without
changing the state of the load attached or transmitting to other Z-Wave devices.

• Tapping top of switch turns the load attached ON.

• Tapping bottom of switch turns the load attached OFF.

• Pressing and holding switch does not effect the load attached but will allow dimming and brightening of Z­Wave dimmers if associated (see below for details).

LED indication

The LED on the ZRW153 will turn on when the load attached is ON. The LED is user configured however to turn
ON when the load attached is OFF, if so desired, to act as a night light.

The ZDW103 will flicker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its 4 groups. This can be changed if desired.

Auxiliary Switch

The ZRW153 supports the AS101 auxiliary switch

Remote Control

The ZRW153 will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of the Z-Wave system. Refer to your
controller’s instructions as to whether your controller can transmit those commands.

See the information in the section titled Version for a complete list of commands the ZRW153 will support.

ADVANCED OPERATION

All On/All Off

The ZRW153 supports the ALL ON/ ALL OFF commands.

The ZRW153 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands 4 different ways.

Refer to your controller for information on how to set the ZRW153 to operate in the manner you desire. Some
controllers may be only able to set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response.

The 4 different ways the ZRW153 can be setup to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands are:

1. ZRW153 will not respond to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.

2. ZRW153 will respond to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.

3. ZRW153 will respond to ALL ON command but will not respond to ALL OFF command.

4. ZRW153 will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF command.

Association

The ZRW153 supports the Association command.

The ZRW153 can be set to control other Z-Wave devices. You can turn on and off, and even dim other Z-Wave
devices once they are “associated” into 1 of 4 groups within the ZRW153.

Each group is turned on or off (or dimmed) by tapping or holding the switch a differing amount of times.
If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 1, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the switch on or

off once. You can brighten or dim devices by holding down the switch in the on or off position. The load attached
to the ZRW153 will also turn on or off. Associating nodes into group 2 or 3 will cause a very slight delay before
the command is transmitted to group 1 nodes.

If you associate a Z-Wave device into Group 2, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the switch on or
off twice. You can brighten or dim devices by tapping the switch on or off once and then holding the switch down.
